Members rudywoofs (Pam) Posted August 15, 2011 Members Posted August 15, 2011 Bert and Ernie to get married (to one another)? The idea is being pushed by Illinois resident Lair Scott through a petition on change.org last week and has so far received more than 1000 signatures. The idea is that if done tastefully, it would really help the cause of LGBT (gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgender) youth. Before finding out that the petition had over 1000 signatures, I was thinking that there would be no support for a harebrained idea like this, but I now stand corrected that Bert and Ernie should not only get gay married on the show, they should also gay consummate the gay marriage. Shockingly, the show’s producers are reaffirming their bigoted ways by refusing to introduce gay marriage into the show. If Sesame street can have a blood-sucking vampire be one of the characters why can’t they show two puppets getting married? It’s never too early to teach children about complex social relationships. Right as they are learning to count they can also learn about the intense psychological, social, and political battles that are fought over highly sensitive matters such as sexual orientation. Ideally, Sesame Street should also dedicate an episode (to come after the marriage episode) which deals with gender reassignment surgery where Bert becomes Bernadette.

If we all sang the same note in the choir, there'd never be any harmony. Funny, isn't it, how we accept Grace for ourselves and demand justice for others?

ClubV12 Posted August 16, 2011 Posted August 16, 2011 "Is anybody else getting tired of these Gay Gangsters..?" Uh,,,,er,,, (whispers) is it OK and politically correct to say I'm getting tired of them to? Quote
ClubV12 Posted August 16, 2011 Posted August 16, 2011 We often think of John the Baptist as a kind of "hermit". But he often associated with the people, watching them, studying them, sharpening his skills on how to reach and preach to them. I came across that reading the Testimonies and thought it was interesting. Quote

Moderators Nan Posted August 17, 2011 Moderators Posted August 17, 2011 Did Miss Piggy and Kermit get married on Sesame St or was that only a mockup somewhere else? I am not sure how interspecies marriage would compare with Bert and Ernie getting married of course. Quote

"Sinless perfection is such a shallow goal." "I love God only as much as the person I love the least." *Forgiveness is always good news. And that is the gospel truth.

Parade Orange Posted August 17, 2011 Posted August 17, 2011 well i have a couple of sock puppets that are afraid of commitment so its a non issue here! Quote All progress in the Spiritual Life is knowing and Loving GOD"there is non upon earth that I desire besides YOU" PS 73:25That perspective changes EVERYTHING-suffering and adversity are the means that makes us hungry for GOD. Disapointments will wean us away wordly occupations. Even sin(when repented of) becomes a mechanism to push us closer to HIM as we experience His Love and Forgiveness.
Moderators John317 Posted August 17, 2011 Moderators Posted August 17, 2011 Yep, that's a good 'un alright. Quote John 3:16-17 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life. [17] For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but in order that the world might be saved through him.
